ain -> jje

Case 1

• (ain) サポ (older sister) -> 누나 (older sister speaker:male)
• (ain) サポ (older sister) -> 언니 (older sister, speaker:female)

Generalization Scheme

Because this selection may have missing context clues within the same sentence, we opted to solve the next selection pair instead.

Case 2

• (ain) チュㇷ゚ (sun/moon/month) -> 달 (moon/month)
• (ain) チュㇷ゚ (sun/moon/month) -> 해 (sun)

Generalization Scheme

TODO

jje -> ain

Case 1

• (jje)눈 -> (ain) ウパㇱ (snow)
• (jje)눈 -> (ain) シㇰ (eye)

Generalization Scheme

If 눈 is in nominative case and a verb indicating motion of descent follows, it is very likely that 눈 means snow. If instead, a verb indicating physical sensation follows, it is likely that 눈 means eye.

The following is a list of Jeju verbs indicating falling motion.

• 내리
• 떨어지
• 온

The following is a list of Jeju verbs indicating physical sensation.

• 아프
• 간지럽
• 차갑
• 뜨겁

Since we have reason to belive that the 눈 as snow has fewer use contexts than 눈 as eye, we set the default selection as eye.

Example Sentences

• 배가 아프나 -> Stomach hurts.
• 배가 간다 -> Ship goes.

Case 2

• (jje)배 -> (ain) チㇷ゚ (ship)
• (jje)배 -> (ain) ト゚ィ (stomach)

Generalization Scheme

If 배 is in nominative case and a verb indicating physical sensation, it is likely that 배 means stomach.

The following is a list of Jeju verbs indicating physical sensation.

• 아프
• 간지럽
• 차갑
• 뜨겁

We set the default lexical selection 배 as ship, since we believe 배 as ship appears in more diverse context than 배 as stomach.

Example Sentences

• 눈이 아프나 -> Eye hurts.
• 눈이 온다 -> It snows.
